CUSTOMIZING EFFECTS

Most effects have options that you can tailor to both the presentation and your own presentation style.

For example, you can customize the Spotlight effect to specify the shape and size of the spotlight. You can also change the name of each effect (for example, you can change the name from “Spotlight” to “Headlight”).

You can assign each effect to a key on the keyboard or a button on the remote control. The key or button you choose starts that effect.

To customize an effect:

1Right-click the name of the effect and choose Edit from the menu. You can also select the desired effect and click the Edit Effect button to make your changes.

2Adjust the settings in the appropriate dialog box and click OK.

3When you’re finished customizing the effect, choose File and Save to save your settings.

4Click the control box in the upper right corner to minimize the Cyclops F/X main screen.
